Can I track Clickbank direct checkout page? (4)

I'm running Facebook ads to a landing page and from there clickthrough to a Clickbank offer. FB>Landing Page>VSL (Clickbank/Vendor)>Checkout

For a period of time, I'm getting the 'circumventing systems policy' violation on FB and I figured it could be the Clickbank hop link due to it being abused by tons of affiliates. I found a guy to clone the Clickbank VSL onto my domain, and from there, clickthrough to the direct checkout page on Clickbank. (Some vendors allow this). FB > Landing Page>VSL (Same domain)>Checkout

Sure enough, after I cloned the VSL, I'm no longer getting the violation.

I'm using a tracker + Postback URL to track my purchases because there are too many pixel misfires and FB isn't tracking properly.

Now the problem is for most trackers they require a ?tid in the offer URL to append the ClickID. The problem with the checkout page URL is there isn't a tid, even if I added it in, it doesn't work. A direct checkout page URL looks like this: http://1.username_carbofix.pay.click...sl1&cbexit=209

Any solutions for this?

Edit: I'm able to add in my affiliate link with TID using an <img src> on the Add to Cart redirect page but sometimes the ClickID passes through, sometimes it doesn't, so on my tracking program it doesn't always record the sales.

You need to pass the parameter on the checkout link like this:

 https://xxxxx.pay.clickbank.net/?cbitems=1&cbfid=Xxxx2&cbskin=30340&vtid=upctr&tid={click_id}

Hi @ehwtfxz,

I just came across your post here and thought to give some feedback.

Things are like this: when using paylinks instead of hoplinks in Clickbank, you should use the "vtid" parameter for passing the unique ClickID. The "vtid" is used for paylinks, while "tid" is used for hoplinks.
This will ensure that the ClickID gets tracked by Clickbank for all visitors.

So your Clickbank paylink would be:
http://1.username_carbofix.pay.clickbank.net/?cbskin=32008&cbfid=44384&vtid={click-ID-here}&cbexit=209

You should also make sure that your tracker can handle the ClickID being posted in the "vtid" variable in the Postback URL in order to receive conversion details from Clickbank.

Cheers!
